Nars Soft Matte Complete Foundation Review

I recently picked up the new NARS Soft Matte Complete Foundation from Sephora (Retail, $40). I've always heard great things about NARS foundations, but before this new foundation, all the others by NARS weren't geared for oily skin. So when I tried them in the past, I wound up looking super greasy and oily about an hour after application. No bueno. When I heard that they were dropping a matte foundation, I celebrated the win for us oily girls and decided to check it out. Since you still can't touch testers in-store at Sephora, I used the shade match tool on Se[...]

Sephora Sale Picks

Sephora's Welcome Back Sale kicked off last week and continues until August 23rd online and in stores. All Beauty Insider Members (which is free to join!) will receive $15 off a $75 or more purchase, or $20 off $100 or more when they use the code WELCOMEBACK. I also want to remind you guys that Sephora has been offering 10% off of all purchases for healthcare workers, but I'm not sure if this is combinable with the welcome back sale or how long that will continue. I love a good Sephora sale, and it's a great time to re-stock your staple products or even try so[...]

My Top 3 Grown & Sexy Perfumes

When it comes to perfume, I'm pretty picky. It's rare that I'm in the beauty section of a store, and smell a perfume that screams my name. I like sweet scents, along with warm florals, and sometimes slightly masculine scents. Over the past year, I built up my perfume collection a little bit, as I was on a quest to find myself a grown and sexy signature scent. I've come a long way from Love Spell and Britney Spears Fantasy back in the day. Here are 3 of my top Grown & Sexy perfumes: 1) Tom Ford Velvet Orchid !function(w,i,d,g,e,t){d.getElementById(i)[...]

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Beauty Picks

We're inching closer and closer to general public access for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (is the 19th circled on your calendar? Because it's circled on mine), and tomorrow those with Insider status get access. I ran down all my picks for the sale in a previous post (including those $50 Ugg Slides), and today I wanted to focus on my beauty picks since there are some great deals in the beauty department. From brushes by Luxie Beauty (I love their face brushes) to that MAC Fix+ Trio for $35, there are quite a few things worth checking out. Also, there's a[...]

Skinfix Barrier+ Foaming Oil Cleanser Review

Back when I was trying to get my skincare routine together, I realized that I needed to replace my go-to facial cleanser. The one that I was using at the time seemed to be really drying out my skin (I have oily skin, and my face was starting to feel really dry and stripped). I wanted to find something that would be gentle, yet effective at cleansing my skin without leaving it feeling stripped. Skinfix's Barrier+ Foaming Oil Cleanser came to my rescue. I remembered being given a sample of a facial cleanser at the first Gen Beauty in New York years ago (and lik[...]

The best lashes on Ali Express

Fly Fierce Fab Ali Express VisoFree Official D22 Lashes

I ain't even gon' hold you, ya girl used to be a lash snob. If it wasn't Iconic, Queen B, Honey B, Miami, etc. I wasn't trying to hear you. Until one day when I was binge-watching makeup tutorials, one of my fave beauty influencers was talking about some lashes she bought on eBay (a pack of 5, for 0.99 and they were cute!). Intrigued, I bought a bunch, and while they were super cute (and I bought tons more, and wore them in my old makeup tutorials on YouTube) they just didn't hit for me like the lashes I was used to. Then makeup twitter started talking ab[...]
